⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public sentiment slightly favors Toronto, aligning with money distribution and sharp action as lines have held steady without reverse movement, supported by Toronto’s superior home metrics (3.20 ERA) and Seattle’s offensive struggles on the road (3.8 runs/game). Mathematical models confirm positive EV on Toronto covers and the under, as both teams’ defenses suppress scoring (combined 7.2 runs per game average), with no major injuries or weather factors altering the low-scoring outlook. Fading the public is not justified here, as consensus data points to Toronto’s edge.
